Campaign raising money for family of bicyclist killed in La Jolla crash
The postdoctoral office at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in La Jolla has organized a GoFundMe campaign and memorial fund for the family of Swati Tyagi, a Salk researcher who died June 23 on North Torrey Pines Road in La Jolla in a crash while riding her bicycle.
More than $60,000 had been raised as of July 6.
Investigators said Tyagi, 34, was riding in the right lane when she merged into the left lane and was struck from behind by a car. She died at the scene.
The GoFundMe page was established by Tyagi’s colleagues to help provide emergency assistance to her husband, Ashim Rai, and 11-month-old son, Miransh.

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - Researchers at UC San Diego Health Thursday began a pair of clinical trials to study COVID-19 vaccinated transplant recipients of bone marrow and solid organs, such as the heart, lung, liver and kidney to monitor immune response to the virus.
While evidence continues to mount that vaccination against COVID-19 most notably the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines produces robust, durable protection in the vast majority of recipients.
However, questions remain for some at greatest risk of a severe outcome from a COVID-19 infection: recipients of donor organs and bone marrow, whose immune systems are necessarily suppressed to ensure their transplants are successful and lasting.
Researchers seek to quantify immunogenicity of COVID vaccines in immunocompromised patients
Evidence continues to mount that vaccination against COVID-19, most notably the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, produces robust, durable protection in the vast majority of recipients.
But questions remain for some at greatest risk of a severe outcome from a COVID-19 infection: Recipients of donor organs and bone marrow whose immune systems are necessarily suppressed to ensure their transplants are successful and lasting.
Some studies have found that vaccinated transplant recipients produce a weak immune response, and severe cases of COVID-19 have been reported in transplant recipients who had received two doses of vaccine.
